Good morning! It is Bandcamp Friday again and this time we are raising funds for @ndlon.bsky.social's Immigrant Defense Fund! We have a couple of very special, limited edition cassettes for it: bikinikill.bandcamp.com/merch

From the picket line to the protest, music carries our struggle. “La Cumbia de la Migra” by Los Jornaleros del Norte turns the pain of raids into collective strength. When workers sing, they refuse to be silenced. Solidarity through song! @ndlon.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwhd...

Amir H. Fallah is selling two pieces to raise money for the legal defense of immigrants. 100% of the proceeds are going to @ndlon.bsky.social. I just got mine, get yours and help support the immigrant community!! #AmirHFallah #ImmigrantsRights #ProtectOurNeighbors partotplan.com/collections/...

Santos Edilberto Banegas Reyes was arrested in Hempstead, NY, and died in ICE custody Thursday, Sept. 18, at the Nassau County Correctional Center in East Meadow, N.Y. A citizen of Honduras, Santos was 42 and had two children. Read our press release for full statement. ndlon.org/ndlon-mourns...

Today, Sept 23rd, Luis Fernando, a dedicated day laborer, was preparing to begin his workday. Without warning, ICE agents descended and detained him. We are calling on our community to stand with Luis Fernando. Every contribution — no matter the size — is an act of solidarity. gofund.me/bd2d27d10

We stand with our community! @ndlon.bsky.social @uniondelbarrio.bsky.social @ufw.bsky.social

We need collective resistance to protect immigrant workers. Fear is their weapon. Solidarity is ours. Organize, strategize and mobilize, Adopt a Corner, a Home Depot or a Car Wash, TODAY.

Join us today for an emergency national call to organize, strategize, and mobilize. We must protect our communities and hold the line where the courts have failed. Immigrant workers need solidarity—not tomorrow, but TODAY, 4pm (PT), 6pm (CT), 7pm (ET). www.mobilize.us/ndlon/event/...

"The decision unmasks the outright lie that these raids are about protecting public safety from serious threats. The Supreme Court majority makes clear that average non-white workers are targets" Chris Newman, Legal Director, NDLON ndlon.org/statement-fr...

"Stand with day laborers, carwash workers, farmworkers, and all other immigrants who are working to keep this country running, even as they are now terrorized by Trump" Pablo Alvarado, Co-Executive Director ndlon.org/ndlon-condem...

“We demand the state to release its own report — one that tells the truth, names the victim, holds federal agents accountable, and honors the dignity of all people, regardless of their perceived immigration status.” truthout.org/articles/adv...

No answers from Governor. No questions from the press. This is where things stand in California. A man is chased to his death by armed agents. And nobody cares.

Not Good Enough: CBP releases incident report on killing of Carlos Montoya in Monrovia, CA. We demand full transparency, accountability, and justice. Carlos Montoya was not an “unknown pedestrian.” He was a beloved father and grandfather, and a member of our community. ndlon.org/not-good-eno...

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is at risk of being deported again — this time to Uganda, a country he has no ties to. www.democracynow.org/2025/8/25/ki...

After 160 days of separation from his wife and children, #KilmarAbregoGarcia was finally home. He hugged his family, spoke to the world with gratitude, and reminded us all to keep fighting for dignity and liberty.

So grateful to @gregsargent.bsky.social (#ff) for his pertinacious efforts to uncover the truth and ensure that Kilmar Abrego Garcia get a fair hearing in the court of public opinion. Still a long road ahead, but the path ahead is becoming increasingly clear. FIGHT BACK. Winning is possible.

Please join us tonight as individuals have been kidnapped in Covina and West Covina this week!

“The courts have made clear: no agency has the authority to randomly detain and disappear people from the streets. We reject the rise of American Vigilantes or whomever they may be.” Pablo Alvarado ndlon.org/statement-an...

This decision is life saving. The Haitian Bridge Alliance is proud to be co council with @uclacilp.bsky.social @ndlon.bsky.social @aclu-norcal.bsky.social @aclusocal.bsky.social Congratulations to National TPS Alliance for leading the fight Anpil men chay pa lou Many hands lighten the load 💙

📣 A federal judge has let MALDEF’s clients, @ndlon.bsky.social, intervene in Huntington Beach’s suit attacking CA’s sanctuary law. The city is backed by a group tied to Trump’s ally Stephen Miller. The fight goes beyond politics—this is about defending civil rights. www.maldef.org/ujxw

“With ICE’s new cash infusion, said Alvarado, he expects similar crackdowns all over the country. People “need to know what to do, how to resist, how to fight back,” he said. “Peacefully, lawfully, orderly, but resist.” Solo el Pueblo, Salva al Pueblo! www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/o...

Good @cnewman.bsky.social piece on the LA protests, centering the wisdom of the late Mike Davis, sage of all things LA: “It’s one of the Ten Commandments of the left. Maybe it’s the First Commandment. You never relinquish the streets.” truthout.org/articles/la-...

“The federalization of local policing envisioned in this proposal is something that would have exceeded the wildest imaginations of J. Edgar Hoover.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

“Democrats] often seem to assume that Trump has won the argument over immigration, particularly over the undocumented population. But recent events suggest this is still very much open to contestation…” writes @gregsargent.bsky.social in must read piece newrepublic.com/article/1961...

Join us this Friday for a conversation with @ivey.house.gov + @alianzaamericas.bsky.social + @ndlon.bsky.social + @32bjseiu.bsky.social to discuss Kilmar's case and urgent fight for human rights and the rule of law. 🔗Register here: bit.ly/43EJkDY

What a beautiful showing of solidarity and love for their neighbors in South Park, Calif on Sunday ☀️ The chants? “You won’t deport our brothers, you won’t deport our sisters, you won’t deport our neighbors. Ice out of South Park!” @iceoutofca.bsky.social @ndlon.bsky.social

I hope more reporters follow up on Bash’s question: “What exactly does that mean?”

Read our full reaction to Trump’s supposed “sanctuary cities” hit list, on behalf of @ndlon.bsky.social - In short- “It’s utter nonsense, but telling - of the dysfunctional, cartoonish, and yet dangerous lengths that the MAGA GOP will go….” Online- ndlon.org/the-sanctuar...

📢Our latest blog post: "No es la frontera, es el color de nuestra piel", written by Manuel Vicente, our radio Jornalera Director, it invites us to rethink the narrative and stand in solidarity with our community, criminalized simply for the color of our skin. ndlon.org/no-es-la-fro...

"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." - Commander William Adama, Battlestar Galactica

When you have judges speaking out and getting arrested by federal security forces, you’re going to want a question who or what is actually in the White House. #HandsOff our judges! www.jsonline.com/story/news/b...

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

Today the Hispanic Congressional Caucus held a press conference demanding that the Trump administration bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man who was deported in “error” to El Salvador, home. We can’t stop raising our voice #BringKilmarHome
